      I mean, by many measures Alex Jones is more accomplished than me, but I’m very happy to be where I am instead of being Alex Jones.

          Lets just cut all the way to the end and “Godwin’s law” for this.

          Adolph Hitler is “more accomplished” than me, but I have zero desire to accomplish what he did. So I’m not sure “more accomplished” is really a good measure to try to aspire to.

      I wouldn’t want his list of accomplishments. And I say that as someone who didn’t end up a major success at standup. If I had to be hateful to be successful, I wouldn’t take that bargain.
